Good to read that. I'd give a jug a pat every time I went into the shed too, and tell her she looks nice.

When you compare the time it takes to d a valve adjustment the Airhead just makes more sense. And in the end, we're just rolling along on two wheels and a motor, down that road.

I just have these trists with young bikes so I can save the Airhead for those special rides. She would be the last to go.

I"m gone for one lousy week and look what happens,

That one is not my particular cup of tea, but KTM really seems to have their shit together. Enjoy ZM.

I was out riding the KTM today trying to keep the revs from going beyond the recommended break in limit. Went down a road that made the Suzuki loose it composure due to the lousy pavement, so before, I would have to back off. On the KTM the faster I went the better it felt. I could feel the road surface but the suspension had way more "headroom" than I've ever had before. The new for 2013 seat is very good. Not a pretty bike to look at IMO, but a great thing to ride. So far so good! Unfortunately I have to take it back to the dealer at 1000 KLMs. That's going to happen very soon, and they will have their way with me.

The bike has a very nice accessory catalog.

I've ordered:

Center stand
Crash bars
Axel and fork sliders
Passenger peg sliders
Heated grips
Locks for panniers

There is all kinds of cool stuff but way too much orange!

When your sitting on it, you don't have to look at it.

If you take it to the local dealer they will at least do the work they are charging you for.

Still gonna cost ya.

As far a the dealer doing the work they are charging for.....that hasn't been my experience. I've owned 41 bikes now.

I'll be carefully gooping assemblies in inconspicuous areas to check if they've been removed.

That's a very nice bike, ZM. Every time I read anything about them, the motorcycle press likes them better than the BMW offerings. They never mention that it's a hard bike for a Mac user to own.

I just checked and all scooter repair manuals are in Mac formats. Hmm.

I always thought that the Mac was somehow less manly than a PC. Now I know for sure.
